  50. Requirements: AmigaOS 2.0 or better
  51.  
  52. IMPORTANT: This should be the LAST patch on EasyRequestArgs!
  53.            Use it from startup-sequence after "LoadWB delay"
  54.            if neccesary and use a high STARTPRI for ARQ.
  55.  
  56. WARNING:   Some bad Programs which extend the Toolsmenu in an
  57.            illegal way (ToolsDaemon etc) do not work with
  58.            WBExtender, cause of multiple sanity checks.
  59.            You should prefer Toolmanager 2.1 anyway...
